kind, whether expressed or implied,
including but not limited to warranties

SITE POLICIES,
MODIFICATION
AND
SEVERABILITY
Please review our other
policies, such as our Privacy and
Security Policy, Returns Policy, Shipping
& Delivery Policy and others, all of
which are incorporated herein by this
reference and are posted on the Site and
may be accessed by using the Search Help
function on this page. These
policies also govern your visit to the

changes to the Site, policies, and these
Terms and Conditions at any time. If any
of these conditions shall be deemed
invalid, void, or for any reason
unenforceable, that condition shall be
deemed severable and shall not affect the
validity and enforceability of any
remaining
condition.
HOW TO ORDER THROUGH THE
SITE
After placing an order,
you will receive an email from us
acknowledging that we have received your
order (“Order
Confirmation”). Please note
that this does not mean that your order
has been accepted. Your order
constitutes an offer to us to buy a
product. All orders are subject to
acceptance by us, and we will confirm
such acceptance to you by sending you an
email confirming the shipment of your
order (the “Shipping
Confirmation”). A contract
with us will only be formed when we send
you the Shipping
Confirmation. The contract
will relate only to those products whose
shipment we have confirmed in the
Shipping
Confirmation. We will not be
obliged to supply any other products
which may have been part of your order in
a separate Order
Confirmation. We reserve the
right to cancel your order at any time
before we have accepted it and we may
rescind our acceptance and cancel your
order where there has been an obvious
error in price or where the product is no
longer in our or our third
party fulfillment provider’s
inventory.
PRICES
AND
AVAILABILITY OF
PRODUCTS
Prices and availability
of products on the Site are subject to
change without notice. Errors will
be corrected when discovered. Our
Site contains a large number of products
and it is always possible that, despite
our best efforts, some of the products
listed on our Site may be incorrectly
priced. We will normally verify prices as
part of our dispatch procedures so that,
where a product's correct price is less
than our stated price, we will charge the
lower amount when dispatching the Product
to you. If a product’s correct
price is higher than the price stated on
our Site, we will normally, at our
discretion, either contact you for
instructions before dispatching the
product, or reject your order and notify
you of such rejection. We are under no
obligation to provide the product to you
at the incorrect (lower) price, even
after we have sent you an
Order
Confirmation or a
Shipping
Confirmation, if the pricing error
is obvious and unmistakable and could
have reasonably been recognized by you as
a pricing
error.
On occasion, you may be
able to place a product in your shopping
cart and submit your order for
processing, but your order is
subsequently cancelled due to
unavailability of product. You
acknowledge that products may sell
quickly and there may be a short period
of time after an order has been
submitted, but where the product is no
longer available. You agree that we
may cancel your order after you have
received an Order
Confirmation without
penalty.
On very rare occasions,
you may receive a
Shipping
Confirmation from us, but the
product is no longer available in our or
our third party fulfillment provider’s
inventory. You agree that we may
rescind our acceptance and cancel your
order without penalty if we are unable to
ship the product you ordered due to
unavailability.
SHIPPING
The term shipping or
ship includes the commencement of
shipping items in an order for multiple
purchases or where the item purchased
consists of components that must be
shipped separately. For example,
your order may consist of (1) several
different items, (2) a quantity of the
same item, or, (3) a single item with
several component parts the size of which
might require them to be shipped in
separate packages. In all such
orders, we endeavor to ship out
individual packages together so that they
arrive at the same time; however, when
that is not possible, we commence
shipping by shipping individual packages
in the order the soonest they are
available and conditions permit. In
these instances, our notification to you
that your order has ³shipped,² marks the
time when shipping has commenced; it does
not mean that all items in the order have
shipped at that time. All packages
sent have a separate tracking number and
may be followed on the Order Status page.
You agree that credit cards and debit
cards are to be charged on the date of
inventory reservation for the order, not
the date of
shipping.
RISK OF
LOSS
All items purchased
from Synermax.com.au are made pursuant to
a shipment contract. This means that the
risk of loss and title for such items
pass to you upon tender of the item to
the
carrier.
Please review
our terms and
conditions for this
